shall provide Sublessor with requests for flight time and proposed flight
schedules as far in advance of any given flight as is reasonably possible and
in any event at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of any requested
departure time. Requests for flight time shall be in a form, whether written or
oral, mutually convenient to, and agreed upon by the parties. In addition to
the proposed schedules and flight times, Sublessee shall provide at least the
following information for each proposed flight at least twenty-four (24) hours
in advance of the scheduled departure as required by Sublessor or Sublessor’s

required by Sublessor or Sublessor’s flight crew.


 


6.                                       Scheduling Flights.  Sublessor shall have final authority over
the scheduling of the Aircraft; provided, however, that Sublessor shall use
reasonable efforts to accommodate Sublessee’s needs and to avoid conflicts in
scheduling.  Sublessee acknowledges that
maintenance and inspection of the Aircraft shall take precedence over
scheduling of the Aircraft.


 


7.                                       Maintenance
of Aircraft.  Sublessor shall be
solely responsible for securing maintenance, preventive maintenance and all
required or otherwise necessary inspections of the Aircraft and shall take such
requirements into account in scheduling the Aircraft. No period of maintenance,
preventive maintenance or inspection shall be delayed or postponed for the
purpose of scheduling the Aircraft, unless such maintenance or inspection can
be safely conducted at a later time in compliance with all applicable laws and
regulations, and within the discretion of the pilot-in-command. The
pilot-in-command shall have final and complete authority to cancel or terminate
any flight for any reason or condition which in his or her judgment would
compromise the safety of the flight.


 


8.                                       Operational
Control.  “Operational control” as
defined in the FARs and for the purposes of this Agreement, with respect to a
flight, means the exercise of authority over initiating, conducting, or
terminating a flight. Sublessor shall have operational control of the Aircraft,
which shall include, without limitation, providing the flight crew, selecting
the pilot-in-command and all other physical and technical operations of the
Aircraft.


 


9.                                       Flight
Crew.  Sublessor shall employ, or
contract with others to employ, pay for and provide to Sublessee, a qualified
flight crew for each flight undertaken under this Agreement.


 


10.                                 Safety
of Flights.  In accordance with
applicable FARs, the qualified flight crew provided by Sublessor shall exercise
all of its duties and responsibilities in regard to the safety of each flight
conducted hereunder. Sublessee specifically agrees that the flight crew, in its
sole and absolute discretion, may terminate any flight, refuse to commence any
flight, or take other action which in the judgment of the pilot-in-command is
necessitated by considerations of safety. No such action of the
pilot-in-command shall create any liability for loss, injury, damage or delay
to Sublessee or any other person. The parties further agree that Sublessor
shall not be liable for delay or failure to furnish the Aircraft and crew
pursuant to this Agreement when such failure is caused by government regulation
or authority, mechanical difficulty, war, civil commotion, strikes or labor
disputes, weather conditions, acts of God or other reasons beyond Sublessor’s
reasonable control.

not less than $100,000,000.00 single limit and shall cause Sublessee to be
named as an additional insured thereunder and (b) aircraft hull insurance for
the Aircraft in an amount to be determined by Lessor.  A certificate of insurance (and, upon request, a copy of the
insurance policy(ies)) shall be furnished to Sublessee after the execution of
this Agreement and prior to flights being conducted under this Agreement. In
addition, Lessor shall provide Sublessee with advance written notice prior to
amending or terminating any insurance on the Aircraft and shall provide
Sublessee with a certificate of insurance promptly after entering into any
amended or newly issued insurance policy.


 


13.                                 Additional

require; provided, however, that the cost of such additional insurance, if any,
shall be borne by Sublessee as set forth in Section 2(d) hereof.
